Foundry Form Sans and Serif were drawn concurrently with matching proportions for harmonious use. Although designed to complement each other both families function independently. The characters have a strong horizontal emphasis for readability; open counters to improve legibility at small sizes; and slightly condensed proportions to ensure economic use of space. The PC TrueType format is a six weight family. Foundry Form Sans has a simplicity of design approach balanced with just enough character to achieve a unique, timeless look.
